Arjun has been questioned twice by NCB
-
The actor had appeared before the anti-drug agency in November and December last year.
In fact, NCB's officials had said that he might be called again due to a discrepancy in his statements.
The agency reportedly suspected that the doctor's prescription submitted by the actor for some psychiatric medicines found at his house during the raid was fake.

The agency had raided the actor's residence on November 9 and seized some electronic gadgets.
Thereafter, his girlfriend Gabriella was questioned for around six hours.
Arjun and Gabriella were called by the NCB after the agency's officials discovered the involvement of the latter's brother Agisilaos Demetriades in the drug case.
The agency also found that he was in touch with several drug dealers.

Following the untimely death of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput on June 14 last year, the NCB started a probe into alleged drug abuse in the Hindi film industry.
Under the investigation, many celebrities including Deepika Padukone, Shraddha Kapoor, and Sara Ali Khan were questioned by the agency.
Sushant's girlfriend and actor Rhea Chakraborty, her brother Showik, among others were arrested by the agency.
